More details about your skills

I have volunteered in Sri Lanka through an organisation before, assisting with injured turtles in Ambalangoda. I also volunteer at home at the local animal shelter, particularly in the wildlife unit. Although Guernsey is not home to a huge variety of wild animals, I am eager to experience somewhere new with different species.

She provided fabulous vegan meals for up to 8 … read more

I very much enjoyed my time at the sanctuary. The work was rewarding and you really got to know and bond with the animals in their care. Noah and Patty were very accommodating, should you wish to go to Melbourne they are happy to run you to the train station. The sanctuary land is beautiful, with rolling hills and roaming space for the valley … read more

All of the volunteers I met were wonderful people, and I have made amazing memories from my time here.
I definitely … read more
